Been debating for a while but finally made my mind.

I have an old laptop and want to get away from windows.

My set up is an old alienware:

Intel i5-4200m 2.50ghz

8 GB of ram

Nvidia GT 750M

And 600 GB of storage

I downloaded bazzite but unfortunately the installer said my set up is unsupported. Anyway to change to or maybe look into a Linux that is better suited for me?

Hi, hoping to get some input from those on Bazzite: have you been able to get into a Helldivers 2 match and have it be stable since the move to EAC?

Prior to the changeover the game was rock solid for me on Bazzite but now I'm getting constant crashes. Have tried everything on Arrowhead's FAQ to stop EAC instability with no luck.

Have tried:

Uninstalling and Reinstalling

Confirmed it's using Proton experimental

Deleting all files in the /bin and /data directories under the game path by hand and re-verifying files

Nothing has helped.

Wondering at this point whether it's something to do with EAC not liking the OS but the devs state that Linux compatibility should not be affected.

Anyone out there running Bazzite and still able to play HD2 without constant crashes?

Edit: I had tried Proton Experimental but I didn't realise that and "Bleeding Edge" are not the same. Have to list Tools in Steam instead of games, open properties of Proton Experimental, go to Betas and set it to "Bleeding Edge" that way to actually use it.

After setting that I managed to run a short mission from beginning to end where previously it was crashing within a couple of minutes of starting.

First, the backstory.

So last night I attempted to run the Bazzite Updater on my desktop and the whole thing just wouldn't boot past the ostree, Bazzite:0. Fans would run wild, lights would be on but nothing. Screens would even turn off. It would boot just fine when I reboot and go into Bazzite:1.

So I'm trying to figure out what could be causing the new update to just absolutely break and I asked the discord already, and right now they're leaning on a potential hardware conflict with the newest update and should wait for the next update and try again.

My worry is that if I wait for the next update and it doesn't work the working Bazzite:1 image would be overwritten by the new broken Bazzite:0 image which would leave me in a bind so I'm trying to at least narrow down the potential issues and one thing I want to get rid of is my virtual DP-3 display that I set up to use with Sunshine but never ended up using.

The problem is, I have no idea how I set that up months ago and I can't seem to figure out a way to completely delete it. I can disable it yeah but to avoid complications I'm trying to just completely remove it.

I've already searched the sub and I'm about to search some more, but I'm also trying to cook dinner and keep cleaning and I'm disabled so the cooking and cleaning is causing a ton of pain. If anyone has the solution to save me some energy so I can go to bed sooner I'd be really grateful.

Went to update Bazzite since I haven't done an update since the start of October and it returned this error about terra-source? Idk what that is. I'm assuming the bad signature part is about security measures or something. How do I fix it or remove the source of the issue?

Quand je joue sur Bazzite, l'overlay de Steam qui donne les performances indique 4 Go de RAM sur ma carte graphique, alors que j'en ai 8.

On peut régler ce problème ?

I heard that lenovo stopped or discontinued driver support meanwhile the Xbox Ally received plenty that gave it better performance, does bazzite have optimizations that help it perform evenly with the Xbox Ally or is the performance the same as windows?

I've recently updated tailscale on all my machines because of a new security update warning, current version on bazzite 44 is 1.98.8 and latest version is 1.104.2

`This machine is running a version with a known security vulnerability. It’s recommended to update to 1.104.2.`

If I do `sudo tailscale update` in bazzite, I get the following error

`ERROR: Fedora Atomic images utilize rpm-ostree instead (and is discouraged to use).`

and `ujust-update` does nothing (my system is up to date)

I succesfully done this on my fedora-kinoite laptop, here I have the tailscale package layered in rpm-ostree, and I have to add the tailscale repo

`sudo curl -fsSL` [`https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/fedora/tailscale.repo`](https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/fedora/tailscale.repo)) `| sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/tailscale.repo`

then execute `rpm-ostree upgrade`, and it worked.

But this method doesn't works on Bazzite, not even after adding the tailscale repo. I don't see the package layered neither. So here my 2 questions:

It's safe to install the layered package on top of the pre-installed package? Do I have to wait until Bazzite 45 to get the latest version of tailscale?

Note: I play on the TV, but I switched to a monitor for better recording.

There is an app “openlogi” that works with fedora, and would be very helpful with my peripherals. But I can’t use it on bazzite, or at least i couldn’t last time i checked like a month ago. Is adding it to the bazaar a bazzite developer thing, or is it an openlogi developer thing?

Hey all,

I've been running bazzite for a while now and have been loving it.

I have used Linux in the past, but mostly Ubuntu.

When I load cyberpunk it's only showing me the option for FSR 2.1. Is there a way to update my gpu drivers specifically? I have a 6650xt and everything I'm reading says it's done through the bazzite os, but my last update was 10.24.26.

Am I missing something?

I wanted to thank you for the latest bazzite update.
My Ally is now silent in idle sitting in the gaming mode. Batters shows close to 8h hours before fans kept spinning and battery was like 2,5h.

I haven't been able to get into bazzite at all this morning. I get to the steam login page and it intiallysucceeds but it has been stuck on the "loading user data" screen (with a steam logo).

Any idea how to fix or bypass this? I tried disabling and reenabling wifi.

Hey all, brand new to linux. Been trying a few distros out, but when trying to load bazzite i keep getting the same blue screen with "mok manager missing from removable media" error and then it counts down and reboots and does it again

- pc was fresh build / blank when i started. Bios etc is up to date - fast boot + hibernate are off - csm is off - tried installing win11 first then bazzite second (seperate harddrives), no luck - wiped drives then tried bazzite first with no windows on any drive, same issue - tried both with secure boot on and off, same issue

Anything else im missing?

set up loads of custom extensions auto hiding dock, full screen toggle for all apps top right, basic dock, swipe to the left to see open apps, menu bar up the top which works in all apps, Red YT app which gives you ad free youtube and skips sponsors in videos, free yt music, all my steam games run and windows apps via bottles.

Hey all! I forked Xodus Nexus (the Xbox/Game Pass launcher for Linux) and added a few features, including arm64 support.

• Native arm64 builds of the launcher, backend and runtime, so it runs natively on armadaOS

• Offline play: set your device as the offline PC (like the Xbox app does) and play installed games without internet, using a stored license and your saved Xbox identity  

• Faster no-internet detection: it figures out within seconds that you’re offline instead of hanging  

• Background service + Steam integration: games run through a background service, so launching from Game Mode works better. Closing is cleaner and crashes recover on their own  

• Small UI fixes, like a closing game now showing as “closing” and a clearly labeled force stop

⚠️ Full honesty: this is vibe coded (built with AI help) and so far I’ve only tested it on my own Odin 3 running ArmadaOS. It’s unofficial, not from the upstream devs, so please report problems to my fork, not to them.

🙏 I need testers! Different games, Game Pass vs. owned titles, offline vs. online. Any feedback helps.

To install: in Desktop Mode, open Konsole and run curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/indiesaudi/xodus-nexus/main/scripts/install.sh | bash, then install the backend and runtime from Settings. It will detect your architecture (x86 or arm64) and install the right components for you.

Repo + issues: https://github.com/indiesaudi/xodus-nexus  

I submitted PRs to the upstream devs. It is up to them to accept it or not.

Hi guys, i have been playing my games through heroic using my 9070xt but never use fsr until this day because, i always brake the game when trying to manually switch dlls, i know optiscaler but never found a guide that works for me, i would like to upgrade fsr and learn how to verify which version is runnning.

i prefer to use enviroment variables and a specific proton to automatic update than use other software then play the game, but if so some app that i can revert to riginal if something goes wrong.

thanks.

I run Bazzite on an RX 9070 XT and wanted local AI without layering ROCm or living in a distrobox. Turns out you don't need either: the PyTorch ROCm wheels carry their own runtime, all you need is the amdgpu driver Bazzite already has.

What actually kept breaking were small traps, so I wrapped the fixes in one script:

• Ryzen iGPU shows up as a second ROCm device → hipErrorInvalidDeviceFunction. It pins apps to the real card.
• RX 6600/6700 XT need HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION. It sets the right one per app (not globally).
• A ComfyUI custom node pip-installs CUDA torch and you're back on CPU. It notices before launch and puts ROCm torch back.
• pip inside a uv venv silently installs into Fedora's Python 3.14. Its venvs carry their own pip.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Raiyzs/ravn/main/install.sh | bash ravn install comfyui ravn run comfyui --open

ravn doctor alone is useful even if you don't install anything: it tells you why your GPU isn't being used.

On my 9070 XT: about 20 min from nothing to the first image (almost all of it the 6 GB PyTorch download), then 1.5 s per 512×512 SD1.5 image. Ollama too (ravn install ollama), official ROCm build in user space.

Everything goes in ~/ravn, nothing outside it except a launcher and a menu entry. Free, MIT. Tested on RDNA4; if you have RDNA2/3 I'd love a ravn doctor --share paste, good or bad.

El proyecto gpu-unlock es una herramienta de código abierto desarrollada por la comunidad que elimina las limitaciones artificiales de rendimiento en los Tensor Cores impuestas por NVIDIA en sus tarjetas gráficas de consumo.

Elimina el límite a mitad de velocidad: NVIDIA limita por software (por motivos de segmentación de mercado) las operaciones matemáticas con acumulación FP32 en los formatos FP16 y BF16 en las gamas GeForce.

Mejora la Inteligencia Artificial: Acelera tareas pesadas de IA, como la generación de imágenes (por ejemplo, en ComfyUI) y el procesamiento previo (prefill) de lenguaje en modelos locales (LLMs).

¿Y la pregunta es si existe la posibilidad de que se incluya en versiones futuras de Bazzite OS versión Nvidia? Tomando en cuenta que al ser Bazzite un sistema inmutable las modificaciones de de kernel no son recomendables.

Hola estoy probando el sistema y me encuentro con que brave y libre wolf no toman la configuración de aceleración por hardware cuando les activo las flash de vulkan no reproducen video alguna idea? Gracias

1 week old and i love it so far :) i also had fps boost on valheim on this super budget pc, from around 70fps on win11 im getting 160+ on Bazzite but i have it capd @ 120 since my monitor is 60 anyway.

i tried bazzite 44 and rollbacked, due to the fan control being broken, has it been fixed as yet ? either natively or via a plugin ? thanks
